Travelling. Rowing.

Not bothered about the football but I’d quite like to see @thekillers bit if that’s available anywhere?

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@TheCumbercat @UltraChallenges Yep.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

Why would hoardes of walkers on the @UltraChallenges London to Brighton need to nick whole toilet rolls from another sporting event’s portaloos 3km in? Don’t they pay a hefty entry fee to have every whim (or need!) met? And 3km in is so close to the start. Baffling.

@flying_boatman My Dad was brilliant at kitting me out with tools. Of course it meant that his which he gave me then needed replacing…

@SimonCalder Trying to be organised & book a train ticket 12 weeks out & I get this, and so can’t book for the return even though the outbound are available.

Buying train tickets in the UK is still awful.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@DrBenSpencer Agree. UK finances are a mess. But how would you fix it?

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@sharrond62 People seem to have forgotten that everyone has to start somewhere. If females are put off at the beginning, they will never progress further, whether recreationally for health and enjoyment or with future elite potential.

@photog_al Sometimes I wish you took terrible blurry photos!

[Helena @hmfsmith]

Why has it been decided that for a @JohnLewisRetail Christmas ad to be “good” it needs to tug at heart strings. And does any of it actually drive sales? I guess the PR reminds us that John Lewis still exists?
We need more fun and laughs in life!

@oldelvet @SnailTideway Interesting. When GDPR came in we were specifically told Google Drive was compliant and no actions needed.
(Pre AI, plus I’m no longer involved so things may have changed of course)

[Helena @hmfsmith]

My favourite message on the class WhatsApp early this morning: “is it normal pick up or early pick up today?”

Today was an inset day.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@SimonCalder My favourite configuration . (Until I win the lottery!)

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@durhamalumni Morning, you may which to check the image you’re using ref. the recent successes at World Rowing Champs email and website article. Wrong sort of boat 🫢

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@_singsun Ah, shame, thank you.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

Where have all the long term tide tables gone? I can’t find London Bridge (or similar) high tide times for more than 12 months out, and nor can AI. Last time I looked, I could get 5+ years out (hence haven’t done this for a while). Any suggestions?

[Helena @hmfsmith]

Currently addressing you all from the afterlife, given @BritishRowing decided my life membership expired on Tuesday, but unfortunately still can’t influence the weather.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@CsOnlinehelpers Hi, thank you. Someone else has already replied and handles it via DMs.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

Flicking through weather apps to see if I can find one I like.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@Argos_Online Is there actually a way I can get help from a human? I’ve been in a doom loop of auto options in the DMs and short of writing to the postal address on your website, can’t see any other options?

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@HighwaysSurrey @SGNgas @SurreyCouncil Done, thank you.

[Helena @hmfsmith]

@HighwaysSurrey how do we find out more information about @SGNgas digging up our road as of yesterday, putting out no parking cones and putting in temp lights when residents have had ZERO notification? (NOT emergency works). Can’t find anything online.
